Well enough to know that it was in my best interest to smile, wave, hug and kiss my way through any number of social gatherings and to never let any o...f the thoughts spinning in my head show on my face. To be really honest, most of the years had passed by in a gray mist, where I didn’t feel or think anything. And perhaps those were the happy years, at least compared to these last few months where a newly awakened need to get away had started to make my life almost as miserable as those first few. "So, did you finish your project?" Yeah, and we had time to spare, so we went to Toronto. We ran into Acacia." How is she?" She's doing well," Dave said. "She came over for a visit this morning, and Aunt Ronnie would drop her off after she brought me to the airport."That was a particularly pleasant memory. He got many looks of undisguised envy as he strolled through the airport with a stunningly beautiful woman on each arm."What are you grinning about?" his mother suddenly asked, alerting Dave. . . and as soon as I saw it for the first time I knew I had to have it in my mouth…but who knew sooner or later my fantasy would become reality It was the weekend and I stayed at my moms house …her and my dad split up awhile back and I come over on the weekends now…but that’s not the point… well when I got there it was late so me and mom were about to go to bed in her room…I was sleeping in there for awhile because my room wasn’t setup yet and she told me that we would be working in the front. "Well, I guess that's something. And you, what will you be doing all this time?" Now she was becoming very nervous almost to the point of running away."To put your mind as ease," he said moving five feet from her, "I won't come any closer than this, but I will be walking with you just in case of trouble."That seemed to make Sandy more comfortable. She still hesitated and looked around the vast open expanse of the parking lot. Several hundred yards away she could clearly see her car and looked.
